The large-scale information interchange that occurs across computer networks in the modern day makes it imperative to protect that information and stop unauthorized individuals from accessing or altering it. Information hiding is one of the critical areas for maintaining information security, preventing unauthorized individuals from accessing and knowing its content. The steganography technique employs various types of media as covers for embedding secret messages. These media can be in the form of images, audio, video, text, and other forms of media. The process of embedding information within text presents several challenges, the most significant of which include the limited available space for concealment and the substantial impact of the hidden data on the text. This research includes a review of the most important techniques and studies used in text-based steganography, presenting their advantages and weaknesses.
